- To add a new menu item, click on the “Add item” tab at the top.
- Fill in the path (single line input field).
- If the menu item is to take the user off site, fill in the full URL and to ensure a new window opens and the user does not leave your site, find the “Target” option second from the bottom of the page and select “New window (_blank)”
- If the menu item is a page within the site, Strip off "http://www.junipergreen.org.uk/" and type the remainder of the URL. So for instance if you wanted to link to www.junipergreencc.org.uk/content/future-events you would type “content/future-events into the box. There is no “/” at the beginning. The page you insert must exist already
- Add in the menu title link (single line input field). This is the word or words that will appear in the actual menu
- The “enabled” box should be checked if you want the item to appear in the menu
- If you are adding the menu to the “Directory” menu, check the “Expanded” option if it is a sub menu, otherwise it won’t appear unless it’s a top level option.
- If you are adding it to the Top (primary links menu) then there are no sub menus so don’t check the “expanded” option.
- If you are adding it to the Councillor Admin menu then don’t check “expanded” as the style in this case is that the menu expand when the user selects the parent option.
- Select the menu’s place in menu hierarchy (pull down list). Choose the parent menu item. Note that all menus are displayed in this list, so you may have to scroll to find the menu you are dealing with. Don’t worry if you can’t find the place you wish to put it, as you can always move the menu item as described in Section 7.4 above.
- Set the words displayed when the mouse hovers over the item (WYSIWYG editor). This is the “title setting” under menu attributes.
